Objectives[]
Capture Greatfeather.
- Greatfeather wrangled
[Tether Shot] (provided)
Description[]
Rulf sent word that you're needed for another job.
A rich house cat is willing to pay top dollar for a male aerie alpha and there is only one that fits the bill, Greatfeather. I gotta head back to camp to help train a particularly wild female, so this is going to be a solo job.
Find Greatfeather and hit him with the Tether Shot. From there, you'll have to wing it.

Progress[]
Greatfeather isn't just going to walk himself down here.
Completion[]
I can't believe you did it, kid! I knew you'd be Roughneck material!
Notes[]
Greatfeather is patrolling the area just south of the quest giver. Use the 
[Tether Shot] when the gryphon loops back closer to the ledge.
While riding Greatfeather, players have access to three abilities:
- Pull the Reins — Pull back on the reins, tiring the gryphon by a small amount. Instant. Deals 3% damage. (1 sec cooldown)
- Bronc Buster — Push the gryphon harder, tiring the gryphon by a large amount. Instant. Deals ~10% damage. (8 sec cooldown)
- Hold Tight — Grab the gryphon more tightly, strengthening your grip on the beast by 20. Instant (5 sec cooldown)
Additionally, the alternate power bar appears - it ranges from 0-100.
The game provides a hint:
- Weaken the gryphon but maintain your grip with [Hold Tight]
Use Bronc Buster and Hold Tight on cooldown, then spam Pull the Reins while waiting for the other abilities to come off cooldown.
When the gryphon reaches 20% health, it will give up and fly to the Roughneck Camp:
- Rulf says: Ho, ho! Look at what the house cat dragged in! Unbelievable!
- Rulf says: Quite a catch, my friend. Let's see how he flies. Hyah!
- Rulf says: I'll get to work on the training. You go see Tagart, he's got more for you.
